Joan Kaiser

Remembering Joan... on my lapel, a gift from Joan "Attitude is Everything" and thru Joan, that life force is always with me.

Ken and Family

Joan my friend, colleage, teacher and inspiration is greatly missed. How fortunate I am to have known her.

I met Joan when she became Sedgwick Middle School's new principal. She came with a continuous smile, energetic enthusiasm, and confidence in the staff. Joan and I immediatly became friends.

Joan helped all of us, teachers and students, to belive in ourselves. Her smile spread. It wasn't long before Sedgwick was the most the happiest and most...

Ken - So sorry to learn about your wife. My sincerest sympathy to you and your family.

Joan and I worked together in the West Hartford Public Schools in the early 1990's. After I left West Hartford our friendship only deepened. Of all the principals I worked with over the years, I can count on one hand those that were so committed to the education of children that it shone not only in their work ethic but also in their smile. Whenever you saw her at work, she would echo Mayor Koch's eternal question, "How am I doing?".

My condolences to Ken, Joan's family and her many...

My condolences to the family. I taught with Joan in East Windsor and was impressed with her dedication to education and ardor for her student's success. She will be missed. Joan and her family are in my prayers.

Ken - Sorry to hear about Joan's passing. Though the memories of your time with each other are, for now, more probably than not, a source of sorrow, those memories will eventually become a source of strength. Be strong and stay strong. All my best wishes for you.

Please accept our deepest sympathies on your loss. I always remember Joan's enthusiasm for life which she imparted to her friends and her students. She was warm and funny and caring. Her passing is a great loss for all whose lives she touched.
Sincerely,
Debbie and Michael
